That's odd. I have no problem resizing screen or mutt in
different-sized terminals. I just tried some experiments
reattaching to a screen session from different-sized xterms and
resizing them as well. No problem. I'm using
Screen version 3.09.11 (FAU) 14-Feb-02
Mutt 1.5.5.1i (2003-11-05)
xterm: XFree86 4.1.0(165)
OS: HP-UX 10.20
I've also resized my screen sessions while running PuTTY from home
without any apparent problems.
